Hello dear gifter!!! Thanks for signing up!

I'll start this the same as every other exchange letter: with some general likes and dislikes

YES:

• If you want to write: I love unconventional metaphors
• If you want to draw: I'm a sucker for interesting lighting and costume swaps or redesigns
• You may have noticed from my journal background: i love stars, just, aesthetically
• sports anime trope that gets me every time: older character who's set up as a less talented foil to one of he protagonist first-years, usually on their own team. jealous and often afraid of being replaced. my fave <3
• generic AUs i'm down with: hogwarts, pokemon, ivalice, corporate finance (shhhh), homestuck, college

NO:

• gore (especially written; if you can stylize body horror art enough that's ok)
• casual insults related to gender/sexuality/promiscuity. if a character is saying something like that they should know it's gonna hurt.
• nsfw - if this is just easier for you to create then feel free but keep it to consenting adults

This time I managed to squeeze most pairings/prompts into the signup itself so... I guess that's it! Oh, and feel free to poke around my SASO tags for sports anime prompts I've made over the last two years, if you want to kill time or you're still stumped on ideas. Happy creating!

Last year I wrote something cute and optimistic and naïve, and I think even then, I probably knew it was just for show. And I considered writing something this year tearing that down, and dropping pretenses, but you know what. You know what? Acting okay in the face of everything may be what I, we, need right now. 

This year I started being more honest about general attitudes that made me feel bad. I was able to talk one-on-one with several of my friends about why some things felt wrong and others didn't. I've noticed recently that I'm less vague, that when I go into a guilt spiral I can get out of it faster, that I'm better able to see the granular data that swings a decision one way or another for me. (Thank you, if you're one of the people who talked out specifics with me. You probably saw me go back over the same ground two weeks later and two weeks after that all year long, but you did help.)

I think, from what I can remember, whether it was in my letter or not, that reducing my anxiety was one of my goals for 2016. It was all-consuming for a while last year. I didn't really do much on a conscious level to curb it, but looking back, it got done anyway? At the very least, the problem I wanted to be free of is not all-consuming anymore.

So, the problems from this year that felt all-consuming to me? They're just next year's goals.

Well, I could just draw whatever I want this round, but diversity in ideas never hurt! 
Drop me a comment here with a ship and maybe a BR5-appropriate prompt and I'll see what I can do. If I don't get around to a request, I might have trouble envisioning it, and it doesn't mean I love you or your prompt any less. I set anon comments to "screened" so we'll see how that works.

I already have a list of ideas I want to draw, so don't feel like you need to prompt for me; this is if you want something or think it would be a goo


If you made a fill and want me to see it, feel free to link it as a comment here too, or nudge me on twitter luckycricket33 

If you want ideas yourself, here's what I'd prompt, since I don't think these characters or pairings got a lot of attention recently:

• Oe Kanade (Chihayafuru) - any pairing. [kana-chan voice] i love poetry.
• Abe and Rio (Oofuri) - i dont even know what i'd want from this
• I prompted two of the dolls from Angelic Layer last year and I'm tempted to again
• Sanada and Raichi (Daiya) - together or with seido people
• Reiji (GBF) - just seems like he'd lend himself well to the theme
• Inui/Oishi (TeniPuri) look ok i look i just. those family episodes did it.
• Hyoudou & Shizuku (Ballroom) do you ever just think about the blue team
• Nozomi & Maki (Love Live) - an inversion of my usual senpai-kouhai platonic ship aesthetic
• Kiyoko/Suga, Kageyama/Tsukishima (Haikyuu) - dont look at me
• TadoFuku. TadoKin. FukuTou which i like to call ToFu. i mean left to my own devices i'll keep asking for teshima like a broken record (Yowapeda)
• this isn't a ship but i love Ravenclaws

list does not necessarily reflect my absolute favorites or what i am more likely to draw this round

banner is a BR 0 gift from kuramochi. the dreamwidth user not, actual kuramochi, as canonical as his artistic prowess may be.

Hello there!!! Thanks for participating in the exchange with me! We're gonna have some fun.

About me:
-i like pretty star patterns, cool lighting, and economic theories
-i do not want straightup dom/sub dynamics

Why i burn for this ship:
-kuramochi as a punkass prankster with a reverent side, being loud and bright and making bad jokes, and also sweating at being teased
-ryousuke choreographing things to fool people into thinking he's flawlessly competent. ryousuke fooling himself into thinking he has higher limits than he does. i want. kuramochi to see behind the facade and not mind that ryousuke has flaws as much as ryousuke minds his own flaws.
-i love it in fanworks when ryousuke gives kuramochi preemptive permission to do things because it establishes a kind of imperfect attempt at dominance like "you can't do this without my permission but also im not going to wait around for you to ask for it and im not going to ask for it myself i'm just going to suggest you do this for me, garbing my request in casual authority"


also, have this bingo card i made a few months ago



The bingo card seems kind of teasing but it's a work of love and I actually enjoy seeing stuff from it appear in different unrelated fanfic and fanart by different people. So if you've done a lot of the things on here - I hope you don't feel like I'm making fun of you! I'm also making fun of myself.

I decided to bring it in here because it's a pretty simple way to generate prompts or talk about things i don't want

so, uh




OPTIONAL STUFF:
-supernatural beings/body horror are ok. ryousuke even likes horror stuff! it's canon
-if you give kuramochi multiple ear piercings i might combust because my boyfriend has. oh geez i think it's his helix? fcuk dont look at me.
-have you ever wanted to do trans headcanons? i'm open to girl kuramochi and NB ryou-san
-im down for kominato sibling jealousy but please dont feel pressured to include it if you're uncomfortable with that. one mild form of it, which is hardest to mess up, is ryousuke putting the moves on kuramochi (or refusing to) because he thinks haruichi wants a piece of that.
-even harder to mess up, because love triangles can be annoying if they're too prominent: just pair up haruichi and eijun. my baby bro side ship.
-i know i've talked about angst and horror but i also really love fics that don't take themselves too seriously, that poke fun at the tropes they're using by pushing them to casual absurdity, and that poke fun at the characters because at the end of the day, daiya no ace is about goofy teenagers
